US is also the leader in internet trolling and disinformation generally. Hardly ever mentioned, but you would expect that wouldn't you? It works in some ways, less in others. $10M on trolls didn't "help" Hillary very much, if indeed the plan was to win. But it was successful in establishing the RussiaGate narrative and the new Russophobia sweeping the west. It's easy to conclude that was the actual priority. Hillary's campaign was sacrificial in comparison. That Hillary lost by deep state design (and with her own assent) is now widely believed.
I see a NYTimes headline on "Russian Disinformation" this morning. What we see in the Western media is endless projection.
